    Wonder-Man!!


    Got a reall cool headcast from BK. I was originally going to do his original costume till I found this design:


    I really liked the Kirby look to the design, its got a real retro 50's superhero design to it.




    I incorperated the emblem into the straps for the jetpack, gave him a adventure type gun and pouch belt. and reworked the gauntlets into studded leather-y ones.


    The jetpack is fully removable. I switched to this as opposed to the jet belt, I figured the pack would be more in line with a tv show or serial of the 50's

        Cool T-bolt! That outfit looks like it's based off Perez' design from his first run on Avengers.

                Very nice. You have a great style. He turned out great.

                    Very cool custom. I love the paints and Jason's sculpt is a beauty! The outfit is outstanding and it really compliments the entire figure. It has a nice, vintage look to it. Also my favorite look for Wonderman. Great job!
